    Florida seniors worry they'll lose homes over skyrocketing insurance

    Florida seniors worry they'll lose homes over skyrocketing insurance

    Soaring insurance premiums seem to be hitting us all in Florida. For the state's senior citizens, the cost is getting too high. It's becoming an issue that insurance agents said they are noticing. Gregory Buck with National Risk Experts in Palm Beach Gardens said he's seeing seniors struggling with insurance. "Fixed income, Social Security, they're not getting paid a lot and have a small pension, maybe," Buck said, "but even so when you're paying $1,200 or $1,500 a month, just for the assessment, what do you do?"

    Republicans don't care how hot it gets back work

    Florida legislators dealt a blow to outdoor workers this month by passing a law that bans local governments from implementing heat standards. Starting July 1, it will be illegal for local governments to pass health and safety measures for outdoor workers in extreme heat. The decision comes after Florida experienced its hottest summer on record.

    “In just a few months, as Florida temperatures soar to triple digits, outdoor workers will face increasingly dangerous conditions,” said Esteban Wood, the policy director at WeCount!, a nonprofit that helps immigrant workers in South Florida. “Workers will suffer heat stroke, businesses will lose out on billions in lost worker productivity, and local emergency rooms will become overwhelmed with heat related hospitalizations.”

    Miami-Dade County’s outdoor worker activists with WeCount! had been organizing for the nation’s first county-wide heat standard since 2017. The coalition of workers officially launched their Que Calor! Campaign in 2021 and came close to getting the Board of County Commissioners to approve the proposed heat standard in September, but by November, commissioners buckled under lobbyist pressure, and the final vote was postponed until March 2024 in the hopes of gaining support.

    Less than a week later, state Rep. Tiffany Esposito filed House Bill 433, which was designed to prevent cities and counties across Florida from enacting workplace heat standards. The bill was passed on March 8, just weeks before the county was set to determine the local decision.

    In case anyone was wondering how republicans feel about the working class, wonder no more. It's pretty clear they don't care if you die on the job. Absolutely disgusting.
